Please turn off the Wifi Airplane Mode:

Some notebook computers also have a Physical Switch that toggles airplane mode on and off. Look around your computer and see if you have one:

Whenever I turn off my wifi then airplane mode automatically turns on ... It has always been like these for me since I installed Zorine ... Problem is I am not able to browse the internet even with my wifi on ....

This shows airplane mode as being on.

You might have some luck with this:

Airplane Mode turns on automatically

To prevent airplane mode from turning on automatically. Let's first ensure that is solved and you are not in airplane mode at any point.

Then run in terminal:

sudo lshw -C network

and post the terminal output in this thread.

Yea .. I am not in airplane mode rn .... Still can't browse the internet

Also the following command that you gave me .. run that on the terminal and here is the output

Your wifi driver is supplied in the kernel.
Can you first try connecting with a working Ethernet Connection or Phone Hotspot and once connected to the net that way, run in terminal:

sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade

You should see the higher released Zorin OS Kernel install during any other upgrades. Once complete, reboot and test your wifi.

USB tethering isn't working as well

I connected my mobile with my laptop then ..turned on USB tethering option on my mobile while my mobile was connected with my home wifi > this didn't work out

You normally tether using your mobile data - that is what I had to do when my ISP provided poor service during lockdown. You may need to pay for unlimited data, but depending on data coverage, internet was much faster using hotspot.
